It’s finally happening! Zone 6a. My first year growing my garden from seed. It’s been such a hot summer here that my Brandywine tomatoes have been green for ages! So excited I can taste the tomato sandwich already.

    Take my rare and valuable upvote… and in exchange, I’ll take your tomato!

    Joking of course (not really) 🍅

    I’m in 6b and I’m still waiting for my tomatoes to start turning. I think I have a marglobe starting to blush but I’ll look again tomorrow. ETA your tomatoes look wonderful!

    I’m in 6a too! Mine haven’t turned color yet but…. some creature did pull one off of the vine today and ate about half, the inside was orange/pink. Sad day, but I guess it’s a good status check.

    Lovely! I always pick my tomatoes when they start to blush like this before critters get to them. They’ll fully ripen on the counter

    ik what you mean!! I thought they were going to stay green forever! but now I have so many I’m giving away boxes of fruit to anyone who will take them

    I’m so glad to hear someone else having healthy tomatoes that are staying green for what seems like forever. My emotions are so up and down with this season of gardening 😭😭
